Yes. The sport is inherently flawed, and intentionally so.
In her handwritten notes for Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone, Rowling admits that her goal was to create a sport that would fit in with the character of wizard in society, even at the cost of it making logical sense.
“Quidditch - was invented in a small hotel in Manchester after a row with my then boyfriend.
“I had been pondering the things that hold a society together, cause it to congregate and signify its particular character and knew I needed a sport.
“It infuriates men, in my experience (why is the Snitch so valuable etc), which is quite satisfying given my state of mind when I invented it.”
